Ms. Thornton is one of my mentors, and she has been very supportive in helping me finish my book. I truly appreciate that she is available to brainstorm with me and is a sounding board to talk through any roadblocks in developing my stories.

Karol, you are a lifesaver! Thank you for helping me to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Your expert web design skills and patient social media training have helped me realize some significant goals. I could not have done it without you. You create a comfortable space for me to ask questions and to learn. I have come a long way in understanding and working with the new technologies, thanks to you. I know I still have a way to go, but I'm much more confident that I can get there. It's all because of your expertise and your belief in me. I am deeply appreciative.

I recently had a consultation with Karol regarding the cover for my upcoming book. Karol is amazing and has a wonderful eye for details. She also took the time to research the genre to assure my cover fit into the look, yet maintain a unique and eye-catching quality to the overall finished product. This will be the second book in my series and Karol had excellent suggestions for updating the cover of the first book so it fits with the new branding I created for the series. Her suggestions helped define my vision for the cover enabling me to give the cover artist that supports my brand a clear definition of what I'm looking for in the final product. Karol's input was valuable and I know that I will be pleased with the final product! What can I say but Karol ROCKS!
